OL’s biggest ever transfers

The €17.7m transfer of Sonny ANDERSON remains, to this day, the biggest in Lyon’s history ahead of that of Kader KEITA at €16m and Fred at €15.4m.

The top 15 transfers in OL’s history reveal that 11 of them were in dealings with other French clubs, highlighting the crucial role the club plays in the Ligue 1 economy.

In the last ten seasons, OL has acquired playing contracts for a total of €337m, €212m of which went to other French clubs.

The immediate arrival of striker Lisandro LOPEZ, whose transfer was negotiated with FC Porto to the value of €24m before performance based bonuses, will see the Argentine international head straight to the top of the charts!
